Understanding the Complex Relationship Between Globalization and Multilateralism

This working paper outlines a strategic vision for reimagining globalization and multilateralism to effectively address 21st-century global challenges. It emphasizes the need for a balanced multilateral framework integrating economic growth with equity, sustainability, and accountability. Key strategies include revitalizing multilateral institutions to enhance regulatory oversight, address systemic imbalances, and foster trust in global governance. The paper advocates leveraging the "UN 2.0" framework to modernize multilateralism by prioritizing inclusive leadership, sustainable resource management, and data-driven decision-making. It highlights the importance of aligning global governance structures with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to ensure equitable development and environmental resilience. A central pillar is recognizing Africa*s pivotal role in shaping a new global order. By empowering African leadership and addressing regional priorities, such as energy access, food systems, and domestic resource mobilization, multilateralism can drive transformative change that benefits all nations, creating a truly equitable and sustainable global system.
